	SignalP predicts the location of signal peptide cleavage sites in protein sequences from prokaryotes and eukaryotes.		ProDom is an automatic compilation of homologous protein domains. BLAST your sequence against the ProDom database.

Protein structural analysis

	The Protein Data Bank is the international repository for biomacromolecular structures. Link to the home page, do a text search of PDB entries, check the status of unreleased entries, or deposit coordinates.		The DALI server searches the PDB for structural homologs of a protein. Go to the FSSP database to view structural neighbours of proteins already in the PDB.
	The MultiCoil program predicts the location of coiled-coil regions in amino acid sequences and classifies whether the coils are likely to be dimeric or trimeric.		The PredictProtein server finds homologs of a protein sequence, detects functional motifs and domains, and predicts secondary structure based on a single sequence or multiple sequence alignment.

NMR sites

	BioMagResBank is the international repository for NMR data from biomacromolecules. Quick Links: Retrieve data • Deposit data • Download pulse sequences • View average chemical shifts.		Kurt Wüthrich shared the 2002 Nobel Prize in Chemistry for his pioneering NMR studies on protein structure. Check out some of the software developed in his lab.

	The Structural Biology Tools server at UConn Health Center provides automated Felix and NMRPipe macro generators, as well as online programs for viewing apodization functions.		The NMR Information server provides a list of worldwide NMR facilities, NMR groups, NMR meetings, and NMR jobs.
